Condi vs. Hillary - Now that would be a fun race to watch.

That would be a dumb play for Republicans. Hillary's biggest weakness is her complete lack of experience, and her controversial background. You want to counter that by putting up someone with a long and well established record in public office. We should be looking for a solid Republican governor to run against Hillary; Jeb would have been ideal; but, he screwed up on the Schiavo mess, and he has the wrong last name; either of which can kill off his chances.

Agree with you all around, however, I CAN see Jeb beating Hillary. I'm a NYer and I cannot see Pataki or Guiliani having a chance against her. I don't think Hillary is a good choice for the Dems, but the media will propel her and the dummies will support her.

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with you there. I believe we need someone as fresh and green as spring in the Oval Office. The Founders believed leaders from the private sector should run for elected office. Career politicians are going to be the death of our nation. I think someone who does NOT know "how things are done in Washington" is exactly what we need. We need a fresh (conservative) approach to the idiocy that is Washington, DC.
